Resistance : The or keys change the resistance by changing the force applied against your
stride which decreases/increases your degree of effort. As you change the resistance, the display
indicates the resistance setting (1 through 20). Because of the EFX’s unique design, two different
options exist to increase your level of effort:
decreasing the resistance and increasing the strides per minute.
increasing the resistance and keeping the same strides per minute.
Note: Your work effort can also be affected by the Cross Ramp keys.
